Club Staying Home for ‘Away’

We’re coming upon the first Tuesday of the month and you know what that means? No, sadly, it’s not time for tacos. Instead, it’s time for the River City Books fiction book club.

I am always impressed with the mix of books the club chooses to read. This month the club — which always meets in the store’s cozy downstairs meeting area — will discuss Away by acclaimed novelist Amy Bloom. Says The New Yorker: “Amy Bloom gets more meaning into individual sentences than most authors manage in whole books.”

The book club, which is free and open to the public, will meet at 7 p.m., tomorrow (Tuesday, October 7). New members are welcome. Participants receive discounts on selected books.
